Expert Reply:
I do have a list of parts needed to flat-tow a 2009 GMC Sierra 1500 but guidelines will be outlined in the owner's manual so I encourage you to look here for yourself. Generally speaking, 4WD models are good to go as is but 2WD models require the driveshaft to be disconnected. I have attached a list of parts below.
Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit part # 3154-3
Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar part # RM-522
RoadMaster 68" Single Hook, Coiled Safety Cables part # RM-643
Hopkins Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles part # HM56101
Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System part # BLU37TR
